Let's Go

You keep trying to piss me off with the games that you play,

But I don't think you realize who you are dealing with, and that I can go all day.

You want to slam doors, and you think that I am going to go back and fourth with you,

But whether you like it or not, I am not going anywhere, and there is nothing that you can do.

Maybe in the past people have backed down from you and let you walk all over them,

But I know that that is exactly what you want, and I am not going to give you that satisfaction because I am not that dumb.

I know what you are trying to do, you are doing everything in your power to make me want to get out of here,

But you don't realize that there is nothing that you can do to change my mind, and that you are dealing with someone who has no fear.

In my life, I have been through a lot that I don't talk about, and all of those things made me strong,

And you are going to end up breaking yourself before you break me, and I promise you, it won't take that long.

If you want to play games, I promise that I can go all day, and that I will never give you that power over me,

Because even if it does end up bothering you, that is a side of me that I will never let you see.

It's funny how all I am doing is giving to you exactly what you give to me,

But I guess you are not used to people playing on your field, and you think that that is not how it is supposed to be.

You don't like how when I wake up early, I am not going to stay quiet anymore,

Because I did it for so long, but all I am doing is making sure that we even out the score.

You make me sit outside, because you keep having a "friend" over to our room,

But you don't realize that by doing this shit, all you are doing is solidifying your own doom.

Then you come in at one in the morning, and make all types of noise and being unneccesarily loud,

But I am not that person anymore who sits back and lets people walk all over them, and I am really proud.

You want to be on your phone being loud while I am trying to get my work done,

Well I am promise you sweetie, I can do that too, and you ain't the only one.

I used to think that I was the problem, because I have always had trouble keeping people happy in the past,

And I thought there was something wrong with me because none of these "friendships" would ever last.

But I realized something, that people don't like when you turn things around and treat them the same way that they treat you,

Because they always expect you to be the bigger person, and that is not something that they are used.

But you can only be the bigger person for so long, before you end up driving yourself crazy,

And it is not my fault that you don't have your shit together, and you're going to flunk out because you are too lazy.

Say what you want, but while you're out getting stoned I am keeping my head down and working on my goals,

And that is something that you will never be able to accomplish because you've already got yourself into too many holes.

It's almost commical to me how you're mad at me, but all I'm doing is treating you the way that you treat me,

But you don't realize that you are the one who started it, and I know that is something that you will never see.

I was always the bigger person and walked away when people started shit with me, but I am no longer backing down,

Because that is exactly what you expect me to do, and I am not going to sit here and be your clown.

You think that I am going to keep taking your shit, but if you start with me, I will happily end it,

Because you are dealing with someone that has been through Hell and knows how to take a hit.

If you want to try and break me, you are going to have to work a lot harder that that,

And if you ever decide to grow up and act like an adult for once in your life, we can happily sit and chat.

But I know you, and you are too immature to even try and do something like that,

Because I know you, and I know where your head is at.

And I pray for your own safety that you never allow this to escalate, because you have no idea what I am capable of doing,

Because if you go there with me, I will happily end it, because you have no idea what I ahve brewing.

I don't think you understand that when you play games with me, you are playing with the coach, but I will happily teach you how to play,

Because you will never break me with the things that you do or the things that you say.
